MaxLength Property (TextCellType)

Gets or sets the maximum number of characters allowed in the text cell.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Property MaxLength As Integer

'Usage
 
Dim instance As TextCellType
Dim value As Integer
 
instance.MaxLength = value
 
value = instance.MaxLength

public int MaxLength {get; set;}

Property Value

Integer number of characters

Remarks

This is the number of characters that can be typed, not the number that can be displayed. If you enter text by setting the Text property for a cell, this property does not limit those characters, only what can be typed by a user when in edit mode.

Example

This example sets the maximum character length for the cell.

FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.TextCellType txt = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.TextCellType();
txt.MaxLength = 25;
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[0, 0].CellType = txt;
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[0, 0].Text = "This is a text cell.";
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Columns[0].Width = 200;

Visual Basic

Dim txt As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.TextCellType()
txt.MaxLength = 25
FpSpread1.Sheets(0).Cells(0, 0).CellType = txt
FpSpread1.Sheets(0).Cells(0, 0).Text = "This is a text cell."
FpSpread1.Sheets(0).Columns(0).Width = 200
